By KATHLEEN NORRIS "F YOUR husband has stopped loving you, says frankly that he has lost all interest in you, isn't that an excuse for divorce?" demands Philippa Allen of Germantown. "Or am I, at 40, supposed to drag on into middle age and old age, with an entirely unsympathetic man? . "John and I met seven years ago,"* her letter goes on. "We* were instantly attracted to each other; he was a widower with a daughter aged 10; I had two sons, now 19 and }7 years of age. Ours was a whirlwind courtship and the first years of our marriage seemed tb me nearer complete ecstasy than I thought human beings ever could attain. My boys were with their father's mother, and in boarding school; I saw them whenever I could, but we did not live in the same city, or even state. Daphne, then a dear little girl, I made my especial charge and pet. "Disillusionment, as a wife, came , when I discovered that John had had many affairs of the heart during his widowhood, and was still going on with them. I won't go into details; but at the time of our marriage his office secretary sued him for breach of promise; he had to settle with her. I knew nothing of that until later. But I did know that many a time when he pleaded late work, professional calls out of town, he was carrying on an affair with one woman or another. Wife Humiliated by Husband. "Sheer pride kept me quiet; I endured unthinkable humiliations, I kept my mouth shut. Daphne grew ,up to the usual independence of the teens, and is now her father's favorite companion. He refuses her nothing. She has • chum whom I will call Edith, a beautiful girl of 18. John is openly infatuated with this girl. The reason I am writing you is that just yesterday I found out that Daphne and Edith are planning to visit John at the Florida camp where he is stationed, some weeks from now. He is a captain, loving his work, filled with youthful enthusiasm ; h? wants the girls to come down for some special occasion; not being in their confidence I don't know exactly what it is, "My boys are in California; the younger one a volunteer in the navy, the older at an officers' training camp. Neither one could be with me, of course; if I leave John I will be entirely alone, and he is in no position now to pay more than a very scant alimony. Will you advise me? Will this come out right if I continue in patience and silence and long-suffering? What are the spiritual values of this situation? I truly want to do right, and not to act precipitately and make a mistake." My dear Philippa, your time for patience and silence was years ago, when you were the wife of another man, and had the rights of boys of 12 and 14) to consider. When you deserted them and their father for a new love, and jumped into a situation you obviously did not thoroughly understand, you lost all sense of spiritual values. And that sense, and the situation that makes such values what they are, are not easily regained. Hard Work and Separation Advised. It would seem to me that the dignified thing to do would be to write John that you mean to take him at his word and leave his house, and to find hard work--essential to these crucial times, that will make you self-supporting and save your selfrespect. Ask him to make some arrangement for Daphne; perhaps she would board with the fascinating | visited in the Mrs. Catherine •'home Tuesday. - \ r Pfc.

To continue to maintain a handsome home for •a man who has no appreciation of it, and for a thankless, independent girl, is only to embitter yourself. Do this without haste and without ugly feeling. Then let later events shape your furlher policy. Possibly John will ask for a divorce. Possibly he will awaken to the fact that you are more valuable to him than his conduct has made you feel. Forty is an age that may have, and often does, a riper charm than any girl of 18 can display. " • Or you might wire him, "Coming down with girls." .The risk then would be of their rudeness, and his answering wipe, "Cannot possibly make arrangements for you here." On the other hand, he might be delighted to be relieved of the full responsibility for them, - and to have _ _ the dignity of a chaperon making, j Himpelmann and Mrst.

Look your prettiest, act your best, and- in assuming your rightful place as John's wife, you may do much .to straighten out the whole situation. Use All of Your Vegetables, Says College Home Economist URBANA, ILL.--At present many varieties of fresh vegetables are short in supply and high in price. Every edible portion should be salvaged and served in some tasty way, says Miss Frances E. Cook, hon.e economist, University of Illinois college of agriculture. According to the Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics, beet tops represent 22 per cent of the beet as purchased; outer leaves of brussels sprouts 23 per c^nt of the whole; turnip tops and parings 34 per cent, and potato parings at least 16 per cent loss of the potato, even when the job is done carefully. Far too often these edible parts are considered as refuse and discarded Leaves of cabbage and lettuce need not be discarded just because the edges are touched with brown, or because there are broken places or wilted spots on the leaves. Wash them in cold water and trim out the spotu. Those that are crisp can be shredded and used in a mixed vegetable salad or for a sandwich filling. Others can be chopped and put into a scup or stew. Celery can be used to the last clean leaf. The coarser stalks and the leaves can go into soups and stews. Frequently the outer stalks can be stewed or panned and served as a hot vegetable.

A few weeks ago two Johnsburg teams had a bowling match at Schae. fers' alleys, at which time a half barrel of Burlington Beer was involved. Last Sunday afternoon, a so called return match was had with "Hack's" Burlington Beer Boys of Johnsburg, consisting of Stanley Freund, Clarence "Jake" Michels, Walter Smith, Leo "Hack" Michels and Leo F. Smith against William Warz's Rheingold Beer Boys of Johnsburg, consisting of Jos. Schmitt, "Hank" Hiller, Harold Fox, Wtn. J. Meyers and Joe Frett, the latter team winning again. Of course, by a small margin of pins through the three-game series. The good ole Burlington beer still tastes good and we think in the very near future there will be another half barrel but we would like to give them a taste of good ole Rheingold Beer.
